Objective: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most frequently occurring mental disorders in children and adolescents. The purpose of this study was to determine diagnostic persistence three years after the first clinical evaluation and to investigate the factors relating to diagnostic persistence in children and adolescents with ADHD. Methods: The study included 183 children and adolescents who were evaluated in the first admission. Of 183 children and adolescents, 142 children and adolescents were evaluated in the second admission and only the data of 142 children and adolescents were analysed in the study. Diagnostic persistence was defined as having met the full criteria for ADHD on second evaluation. Symptom severity of ADHD was determined using the Turgay DSM-IV-based Child and Adolescent Behavior Disorders Screening and Rating Scale-Parents Form (T-DSM-IV-S). Intelligence level was assessed through the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised. Results: Of the children included in the study, 77.5% (n = 110) were determined to have ADHD diagnostic persistence. Low intelligence levels, younger age and higher T-DSM-IV-S inattention and conduct disorder scores were associated with diagnostic persistence. ADHD diagnosis in children and adolescents tends to continue at high rates. Conclusions: Determination of the risks related to ADHD diagnostic persistence may contribute to improved treatment planning and interventions.

Sub-saharan african countries and migration to eu-rope: Exploring the motivations, effects and solutions
Uchehara, Kieran
In recent decades, the movement of sub-Saharan African countries to Europe has increased out of proportion. Individuals from poor African coun-Tries neighbouring the Sahara desert embark on a dangerous journey to Europe in hopes of a better life. Hundreds of lives have been lost or ruined as they leave their homelands in search of a better life. Migration from sub-Saharan African coun-Tries to Europe is significant because, apart from loss of life, most of them who do not get asylum in Europe are deported back to Africa. This paper argues that there should be cooperation between the EU and African countries on this issue in-volving the establishment of a network of Africa-based migration observatories to collect, analyse and disseminate information on migration flows between the two continents

Summation formulas for the products of the Frobenius–Euler polynomials
He, Yuan; Aracı, Serkan; Srivastava, H. M.
We present here a further investigation for the classical Frobenius–Euler polynomials. By making use of the generating function methods and summation transform techniques, we establish some summation formulas for the products of an arbitrary number of the classical Frobenius–Euler polynomials. The results presented here are generalizations of the corresponding known formulas for the classical Bernoulli polynomials and the classical Euler polynomials.

A new generalization of Apostol type Hermite–Genocchi polynomials and its applications
Aracı, Serkan; Khan, Waseem A.; Açıkgöz, Mehmet; Özel, Cenap; Kumam, Poom
By using the modified Milne-Thomson’s polynomial given in Araci et al. (Appl Math Inf Sci 8(6):2803–2808, 2014), we introduce a new concept of the Apostol Hermite–Genocchi polynomials. We also perform a further investigation for aforementioned polynomial and derive some implicit summation formulae and general symmetric identities arising from different analytical means and generating functions method. The results obtained here are an extension of Hermite–Bernoulli polynomials (Pathan and Khan in Mediterr J Math 12:679–695, 2015a) and Hermite–Euler polynomials (Pathan and Khan in Mediterr J Math 2015b, doi:10.1007/s00009-015-0551-1) to Apostol type Hermite–Genocchi polynomials defined in this paper.
